Engine Q&A 2016 Mercedes-Benz S550

A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.

These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I put water in my Mercedes-Benz S550 radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your S550 radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant.
